The Knicks are now 2-0 which is in a word, shocking. They have looked good on offense and ferocious on defense. If they keep playing with this intensity they may have a shot to play some basketball in late May or even June – not to get way ahead of ourselves. They could easily blow the next two but if you are a Knicks fan and you are not excited then check yourself for a pulse. Here are some thoughts from how the Knicks treated the 76ers like a small child today:

There was a guy playing for the Knicks wearing #7 who was diving for lose balls, blocking shots, playing stellar defense and even dove into the stands for a lose ball. I have no idea who this player was but I hope he can give Melo some tips on how to play.

I am going to go out on a limb and say that whenever either the Knicks hit 19 treys like Friday or JR Smith actually plays well the Knicks are going to win. And, JR with 20 points, 9 rebounds and 2 steals – did that really happen???

The Knicks are winning by an average of 18 points a game. The Knicks are winning by an average of 18 points a game. I had to write that twice because it sounds so absurd but is true.

How is it that the Knicks won by so much in back to back games yet I was on the edge of my seat and kept waiting for the Knicks to blow it in each game?

Hey Philly, you better hope Bynum comes back soon or this is going to be a long season for all of your fans. I may regret saying that tomorrow night but right now I am sticking my tongue out at your mediocre squad.

How well did the Knicks play today? They have the defensive player of the year on their team and only felt the need to play him for 20 minutes.

How old is Jason Kidd again? I believe that is what Philly kept asking all game because Kidd looked damn good.

Hey Ronnie Brewer, learn to finish better and you are going to be a dynamite contributor for this team.

Prigi was looking better today and even shot the ball 4 times (2 pts) after looking petrified to shoot for almost 7 quarters.

Rasheed Wallace with the hook!!! Apparently Rasheed was the one taking lessons from Hakeem Olajuwon in the off-season.

Btw, is anyone now possibly upset that Mike Woodson is our coach??? I don’t think anyone is calling for Phil Jackson right now.
